MUMBAI : Chief minister Uddhav Thackeray performed special prayers at the Lord Vithhal temple in Pandharpur on Wednesday morning on the occasion of Ashadhi Ekadashi.

“I (Uddhav Thackeray) prayed to the Lord that now I want to see magic. Show me that magic because as humans our hands are clasped. We don’t have medicine or anything else. How to live with a mask on our faces? Start destroying corona from today and give the entire world a happy and healthy life,” tweeted the chief minister’s office (CMO).

“I also prayed to bring happiness for the agrarian community and fulfil all desires and wishes of people of the state.”

This was the first time Thackeray offered prayers at the Pandharpur temple as the CM of Maharashtr­a. The chief minister was accompanie­d by his wife, Rashmi, and son, Aaditya, who is also the state’s environmen­t and tourism minister.
